Good Times with the Parentals!

My parents came out to San Jose for a visit this past weekend. We had loads of fun... Went to a Giants game (Pictured above), which we had a blast at! Mostly because of the people we were sitting by. Everyone was CRAZY! There was also a guy who tried to rush the field, but got tackled instead. It was an eventful night!

The next day we headed to Half Moon Bay, which wasn't the greatest place. It was very pretty, but way too windy for our liking. We soon made our way to Stanford to watch the BYU rugby game against CAL for the National Championship. BYU lost, but it was a fun experience. Dad really loved it, while my mom and I laughed at people and watched the planes fly over. No really, we had a great time!

All in all, it was a great weekend! Thanks Mom and Dad- Love you BOTH!

Words of Wisdom!

As I was shopping at Trader Joe's today (which is my new favorite store), I was buying my food and the cashier the was nicest guy! Anyway, he asked how my day was... I answer, "It's okay, nothin' too special." Then, he busts out some words of wisdom:

"Just remember, you never have a bad day, just a bad moment. It's up to you if you want to keep hold of that bad moment."

I really liked that! Thanks cashier man.

The Going Ons:

• I was listening to my Ipod today as I was heading outside. Once I stepped outside in the rain, guess what song came on? "Singin' In the Rain" It was the best timing ever...So, I had a little pep in my step as I was singing in the rain =)
• 
  
• I starting watching Roswell, a TV show that was on the WB (back when it was the WB and not CW) when I was in high school. I have always been a huge fan of the show, and now I am addicted to watching it again. Mostly because I have a huge crush on the character, Max. It's been like ten years, and I still swoon over the guy. I guess it's to fill the void of not having anyone to swoon over in real life. Hm, I guess Max will have to do for now!

• Realized the other day that getting older is kinda sad... There's this cute guy in the gym that I always see and I happened to run into him at the library. We got to talking, and it turns out he is either 18 or 19. He didn't come out and say it, but I am 100% positive he's a freshman out of high school. Just my luck-
• 
  
• So, I think I am getting to that point in my life where I want to find a location and stay there for a little bit. I'm about 98% positive that I have an internship down in San Diego for the summer, which I am super stoked about... But, that just means I get to move yet again for like the 10th time in the last couple of years. Then, once the internship is over, I want to move to Palo Alto for the last year of the my program. It's great that I have the freedom to do this, but I am starting to just want to find a place and stay there for a bit. I hope I can find a good job somewhere and stay!

What a great picture- I think it captures so many amazing elements! That's my cutie Patutie niece =)

Just a Look-a-Like Update

I was walking to the gym this morning, and some girl went out of her way to wave to me... I look at her without waving because I don't have a clue who she is. She takes another look, and eventually said, "Sorry, I thought you were someone else!" HA- if only she knew how often I get that... I just smiled and went on my way.

I know you can be overwhelmed and you can be underwhelmed, but can you ever just be whelmed?

I am SO ready for the semester be OVER! At this moment, I am dragging my feet to get all my work done. I still have about 6 weeks left of school, which is good and bad. Good because I still have a million things to get done before the semester ends, but bad because it is taking FOREVER (and lets face it, I just want all my school work done!). Just so you feel my pain, here's what I have left to do:

1- Program Plan (roughly a 40 page grant that I need to write)
2- Stats Midterm (Thursday), Stats Homework, and then Stats Final
3- 10 page research paper
4- Confirm my internship and write up a contract
5- Some bizarre 5 minute presentation about a health policy
6- Roughly 4-5 more interview summaries for a job

Those are the major assignments! I am a little stressed out over them, but I gotta look on the bright side... I have six more weeks to get it all done =)

EVERY TIME....

Every time I go to the Walmart here in San Jose, they are restocking the milk. I just don't get it. I go at various times, and it never fails that they are restocking the milk. Of course, I need milk, so it's completely awkward trying to make my way around the worker and the crates. Just once, Walmart, can you please not restock the milk when I come... thanks!
